Bika intends to bring the fight to Dirrell from the opening bell of the first round. He wants to establish a fast, tough pace early on.

"The first fight with Dirrell, I started off a little too slow. For this fight I will try to show that I am the boss in the right from the beginning, and make him scared. I want to attack him relentlessly and prove to him that he doesn't belong in the ring with me," Bika said.

They fought to a twelve round draw last December. Bika feels confident he did enough to win.

"I definitely feel that I won the first fight and everyone saw that. The body shot that he got on me was a low blow, it was a lucky punch. I kept on hitting him so hard and he couldn't handle the pressure I was putting on him. I know that I won that fight," Bika said.
